I predict that every Friday before Christmas for the next 10 years 'will be busier than ever'.

To prevent disaster, a) plan ahead, b) stay at home. c) buy all gifts as recommended by Honest John!!

I did take notice of what Avant, and others, have said about the 1.4 Boosterjet Vitara in the (current) SX4 topic.

I will havesaid it before (everything I say has been said before ) but my local dealer extends the warranty year on year (at no cost) provided they service it annually. It's on their website but not written up in HUGE banner style advertising so maybe ask your local folk, maybe they do something similar?

Hello, All,

I must disable the reversing-beep that sounds repeatedly inside the cabin of a just-acquired 2005 Daihatsu Sirion 1.3 SE Automatic: the then new-shape model with the boxy body.... Read more

Thanks, elekie&a/c doctor,

I didn't mean to whinge in my initial post (so didn't mention the following) but serious injury has left me with a cluster of types of hearing-damage. One is hyperacusis: simply, many sounds cause me pain. (They needn't be in the least bit loud.) Unfortunately, the reversing-beeper of the Daihatsu Sirion happens to strike just the wrong note....

M017820. Locked 13. Could somebody tell me the opening code please?

Yes, that's correct. You could take your radio to either a Ford main dealer or car audio specialist to have it unlocked. However, the cost of having this work carried out is likely to cost more than buying another unit on Ebay.

I read with interest the thread about cross climate tyres and the variation in prices for different size tyres. When I bought the Auris I had a choice of two. One on 16" wheels, one on 17".. I opted for 16" for a better ride and cheaper (about £30 each) tyres.

Sadly I am still stuck with alloy wheels which are a complete pig to keep clean and expose the brakes to all the weather. Does anyone else long for the easy old days of steel wheels and a wheel trim that was easy to wash and didn't need to be re-finished after a few years? Read more

It may will be because the steel wheels were lighter, so had a lower unsprung mass.

I got done afternarket alloys for my mondeo 16" and they were heavier thanr steels that came with the car. They were soft and Bent easily. I swapped back to the Steelies now. I don't b even bother with the hub cap covers. I quite like the look.

No, sorry, we don't have that option. I don't think anyone's asked for it before. As the threads all have the original poster's name against them in the list, and the time and date of the most recent post, it's easy to find what's been replied to and what hasn't.

But welcome to the forum....

The Carisma and Colt were also panned when I was selling them but both outlasted most rivals and rarely went wrong. I’d have every confidence in the Mitsubishi ASX but I don’t like the styling at all.

Exactly - that's my point, not the best car in dynamic terms compared to the best in class, but you know it'll work when you need it. The poor ratings (because they were over-priced and slightly dated new) only make them more compelling second hand as long-term purchases in my eyes. When I live in the sticks I want dependability and the ASX will have that along with decent wading depth and some genuine rough-road capability - all useful attributes in rural Wales....

I can't pull up any relevant information from what you've supplied.

Might be a chance if you post model/year/engine size and fuel type.
